PUNE: Terror struck Pune tonight as a powerful bomb ripped apart a popular bakery near a Jewish prayer house, killing nine people, including five women and a foreigner, and injuring 45 in the first major attack since 26/11 carnage.

Pune/Lucknow: Abhishek Saxena's widowed mother had all her hopes pinned on him. But all came to a crashing end when the 23-year-old third-year BTech (mechanical) student of D Y Patil Engineering College in Pune died at Inlaks and Budhrani hospital on Tuesday, taking the German Bakery blast toll to 10.

Hailing from Lucknow, Abhishek was an only child. For his mother Nidhi, it was the cruelest blow: her husband, S C Saxena, a bank manager, died in 1994 when Abhishek was barely eight. Nidhi then got a clerical job at her husbands bank. After Abhishek completed his intermediate from Mahanagar Boys Inter College in 2005, she allowed him to pursue his engineering at in Pune. Though sad that her only son would have to leave, she accepted it as she was sure that further studies would count a lot in his career, says Abhisheks uncle Alok Saxena.

Another uncle Arvind Kumar, said he stayed at a flat with a friend on Senapati Bapat Road in Pune. Pravin Nitnavare, assistant professor at D Y Patil Engineering College, said, Abhishek , who used to be in the third year in the mechanical department, would participate in various engineering workshops at the college as well as outside . D S Yadav, registrar of the college , said, He would always perform well in college exams.

Intensivist Vilas Gundecha, of Inlaks and Budhrani Hospital, said, Abhishek was admitted with severe injuries to the right leg, which required immediate amputation. Following that, he continued to bleed profusely and several rounds blood transfusions (25 bottles) had to be conducted over the past two days.

Kamlesh Kumari was a recipient of Ashoka Chakra Award, India's highest peacetime award. She was a constable of CRPF (Central Reserve Police Force) who died defending the parliament of India from terrorist attack on 13 December 2001.

Constable Kamlesh Kumari joined the force in 1994 and was first posted with the elite 104 Rapid Action Force (RAF) in Allahabad. Soon after, she was posted at the 88 Mahila Battalion on July 12, 2001. She became part of the Bravo Company, which is deployed in Parliament when in session.

Kamlesh Kumari was posted near the X-ray machine at Gate No. 12 of the Parliament House. She saw the ambassador brand car, bearing the license number plate DL 3C J 1527, heading from Vijay Chowk towards the gate. Kamlesh was the first security person to walk up to the car, laden with a deadly cargo and driven by men with the agenda of spreading terror and mayhem.

Kamlesh, realising something was amiss, ran towards the gate to shut it. The terrorists, their cover blown, opened fire. Eleven bullets from the guns caught Kamlesh in her stomach and she fell. It was 11.50 in the morning.

Kamlesh's alertness prevented a human bomb among the terrorists from executing his plan; the closing of Gate No. 1 and the alarm raised gave time for other security personnel to take position and shoot the bomber.

November 7, 2005, J&K[personal note: This was from a previous attempt http://wallofsorrow.blogspot.com/ to remember those killed by terrorists. Like back then, now too I find the effort makes me moody, unsocial and withdrawn, and depressed. Therefore, I will contribute here at a very measured pace only. Collectively we can do it.]

Father and sonFrom dailyexcelsior.com and tribuneindia.com

In the afternoon today, unidentified gunmen appeared in an apple orchard near Indergam and they fired upon one Abdul Ahad Chopan S/o Abdullah Chopan R/o Yatipora, Pattan, killing him on spot. Unconfirmed reports said that Chopan had earlier worked with a counter-insurgent organisation.

Please note that dailyexcelsior.com, of Aug 28, 2001, had the following:

At Peth-Kanihama bridge in the same area {Magam} today, two militants intercepted Ghulam Mohammad Chopan S/O Abdul Ahad Chopan of Sanoorkalipora and shot him dead. Chopan was working as a cook with IRP 6th Bn which is a part of SOG Pattan. He was returning to duty along with a former militant, namely Yunis, when militants captured him and shot him dead. They did not harm his associate and later escaped on his Honda motorcycle.

I think it is the same family. The father, killed today, was a cook for the Indian Reserve Police; the jihadis killed his son {also a cook} in 2001.

Rajeev Agarwal was a month away from becoming a lawyer and taking up his first job when he was grievously injured in the Feb 13 Pune terror blast. After battling for life for a week, the 23-year-old student succumbed to his injuries early Sunday.

A former student of Bharatiya Vidya Bhavan at Salt Lake, Rajeev Agarwal had left for Pune four years back for the law course.

Rajeev Agarwal is the fourth alumni of Bharatiya Vidya Bhavan at Salt Lake to die in the Pune blast. Ankik Dhar, Anindi Dhar and Shilpa Goyenka had died on the spot.

'He had gone to have a cup of coffee at the German Bakery with four friends on that fateful day. After a while, two of his friends went out of the bakery. Agarwal and two others were at the cash counter making the payment when the blast occurred,' said one of Agarwal's relatives.

'All three friends had 60 percent burns. Their entire body was damaged,' he added.

The law student's parents and two siblings have been in Pune for the last few days arranging for his treatment at the Jehangir Hospital, where he was admitted by the police and rescuers soon after the explosion.

A relative, sitting at the Agarwals' residence at 25, Banarsi Ghosh Road in north Kolkata, said: 'We heard the news at 6 a.m.'

'He was to complete his course next month. He had also got a job through campus interview,' he said.

Describing Rajeev Agarwal as a brilliant student and a fine boy, the elderly relative said: 'He had no enemies, such was his modest nature'.

The 2006 Varanasi bombings were a series of bombings that occurred across the Hindu holy city of Varanasi in India on 7 March 2006. At least 28 people are reported to have been killed and as many as 101 others were injured.

Indian Victims of 9/11 Attacks on World trade center. While this is not a terrorist attack in India, people very easily forget that Indians are third in the list of countries in number of victims on 9/11. No.1 is USA, no.2 is UK. No.3 is India.

Is it possible to have a thread on terrorist attacks in India with reference to who planned, perpetrated it, was convicted, who has escaped justice, who is hiding in another country. There should be a comprehensive list of terror attack perpetrators too for ready reference. Remember the coimbatore and other blasts in S India on churches were blamed on right wing hindu groups, but when they convicted an IM related group it was kept confined in page 17's of psec media.

The deceased Indians were identified as Major Dr Laishram Jyotin Singh of Army Medical Corps, Major Deepak Yadav of Army Education Corps, engineer Bhola Ram, tabla player Nawab Khan, staffer of Kandahar Consulate Nitish Chibber and ITBP constable Roshan Lal, Indian embassy sources said....Jyotin Singh was in Afghanistan to train local doctors at the Indira Gandhi hospital while Deepak Yadav was teaching English at the Afghan Military Academy.

I have updated the list of victims. However, i decided to move away from google spreadsheets. I created a new blogspot, where a better grid display is present and u can sort and filter the data as u like.
